Painting Description

Shades of blues and purples on these Amish girls are quite typical of their traditional dresses.

I spotted these girls rushing through the grounds of the annual Amish auction which raises money for their parochial school system. Technically I decided to use an approach developed in the 1930’s by Nicolai Fechin, an American/Russian artist who lived in the southwest of the United States.

Reverie

Pieces under this category were painted during a very short period of time between 2014-2015 when Pete developed a new style inspired by aspects of the work of Nicolai Fechin.
